Held Up at Killingly-Rhode Line by Health Officials. Island A band of gypsies, traveling in au- tomobiles and_wagons, was turned back at the Killingly-Rhode Island line and, under escort of Rhode Island officials, taken to a place not distant from Providence, to be put in quaran-} tine. A telephone message directed the attention of Killingly officers to the fact that the band was headed for the Connecticut line and brought the ad- ditional information that the gypsies were wanted to be put in quarantine. On the eastern border of this town the band was intercepted and turned back and_later they were taken in charge by Providence officials. The band numbered about forty adults and children. They had two automobiles, bearing Georgia registra- tions, and three wagons. , The crowd hailed from Savannah. Their tour of Southern New England is now inter- rupted by a quarantine that will keep them under close supervision for at least three weeks. CHAMPAGNE STIRRED UP PEACEFUL CHURCH SERVICE. Now For 210 Days Oliver is in Brook- Iyn at His Old Job. Oliver Champagne, jailologist ex- traordinary, made a periodical ap- pearance in the town court on Tues- day morning and drew an order for 210 days’ stay at the Windham Coun- ty Jail in Brooklyn. Oliver accepted 4t with as much glee as most people would a ticket for home and danced his way from the prisoners’ dock back to_his cell, with an admonition to the officer in charge of him to hurry around the limousine and get him back on his regular job. Champagne was charged with hav- ing been intoxicated and with breach of the peace. Monday evening he disturbed a church service and later gave burlesque dances and sang songs in the business section. The act didn't make a hit with the police and he was locked up. Champagne is the man who public- ly proclaims that he is much more in favor of Brooklyn jail as a perman- ent resort than he is the New London County jail at Norwich. He has been 2 guest at both many times. His aversion to being locked up at Nor- wich is known to the officers here, so after he had been sentenced Tuesday morning one of them told him that he was to be sent to Norwich because the Brooklyn jail was filled to capacity This disheartened - the prisoner, who almost immedlately brightened, how- ever, and came back with the sug- gestion that some prisoner be trans- ferred from Brooklyn to Norwich and he be given the vacancy at Brooklyn, Where, he admits, he is better off than when at liberty, Champagne was so well pleased Wwhen he learned that he was not go- ing to Norwich that he offered to take the mittimus from the officer and de- liver himself at the jail, hiking the four miles to Brooklyn. He was given a ride over, though, by Deputy Sheriff Charles E.' Ayer. POMONA FIELD DAY. Pleasant Gathering at Roselawn Park in Woodstock.
